So, two of the places I remember from Boston of 30 years ago are gone: the S. S. Kresge store and Barnes and Noble. That old church in Back Bay under whose arches I crashed my first night there is still standing, but I don't think I'll use it again after finding out how comfortable the Metro stops are.

I always have a problem with pens breaking or just going bad in my pocket. I found these cute little Sharpie Micro pens at the CVS store, that look as though they might survive a while. Expensive, though: $5 for 4. They write finely enough for my to-do lists, plus they're usable for anything a normal Sharpie is good for.
